In between, enjoy a delicious lunch with activities for the kids too at Staehly Farm & Winery.

Staehly Farms' own Honey Crisp, McIntosh, and Delicious apples in
four different apple wines. A full flight of wines (7) is availble for $8.00
and comes with a special stemless glass while supplies last.

Pumpkin Patch & Harvest Barn (October 6th - 9th) 

Hundreds of pumpkins available to choose from in addition to special gourds.

which is chock full of fall treats like kettle corn, pumpkin butter,

Kids Hay Maze (October 6th - 9th) 

The free kids maze is open from 10 to 6 both days.
